I am not intending to defend anybody, particularly someone who I don't know. I am not comfortable in Chutz La'aretz. I cry on Tisha B'av like nobody else I know. I am deeply pained about the painful state of EY and Yerushalayim and wish it well day and night. I miss it and yearn for it like nobody I know. <br /><br />Also I am thankful to each individual soldier who stands and protects the rest of us when we are there. I am not a Jew hater at all. I am a Jew lover. I usually try to remember not to write sharp words in my posts even when I disagree with someone.That's why I believe I have the right and maybe also the obligation to present a point of view which I think deserves to be presented. I don't mean to offend anyone.<br /><br />EY is very holy and I yearn for it beyond imagination. Yet, in every group or sect there are only few people with the real feeling of that culture and a multitude of simple people who follow outward ways without understanding. The Satmar Rav Z"L Cried when he said vesechzena ainainu... He cared very much about EY and about the well being of every Yid. He did tremendous chesed to every type of Yid, including Zionistic Yidden. But he had very strong feelings about what he saw as the abuse and misrepresentation of EY. That was not hatred chas vesholom but tremndous hurt. I have heard people making the statement that it is more valuable to play basketball in EY than to learn Torah in chu"l. Of the people who embrace EY few people have the real feeling of that idea and a multitude don't. They are in EY but have no hasaga about EY. Some people should be told mi bikaish zos miyedchem remos chatzairoy. They aren't doing a good deed by being in EY if they don't follow the laws of the master of the land. But they conceitedly claim that they are holier than the ben Torah of Chu'L. So they live a secular religion-less life of hefkairus and they taunt Jews who are sincere yirai shomayim just because they live in the right place and those others don't. Could it really make sense that Hashem prefers them just because of their physical location. Is that the meaning of Eretz Yisroel? My body is less in EY than theirs but my heart is much much more. Why don't I go live there then? That's a whole other discussion and not for now. You are correct, Derby, that Yiddishkeit and EY is one, but EY without Yiddishkeit is neither. It isn't even EY. But Yiddishkeit without EY could bizman hazeh still be Yiddishkeit. This distinction must be clear, very clear!Harrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633952367455665536.post-6566984279103249412016-09-02T00:49:12.965+03:002016-09-02T00:49:12.965+03:00Satmar has done irreparable damage to yiddishkeit ...Satmar has done irreparable damage to yiddishkeit on many aspects. <br />The hate for Zion vs the love of Marmorosh is one example. <br />The stench of גאווה permeating from their holy essence that only their understanding of the Torah is correct while the rest are Apikorsim has damaged the fabric of Klal yisroel.

To those defending the "clown"
Loo...Harry<br />To those defending the "clown"<br />Look and search deep into your hearts and you will find that deep down you don't want Eretz Yisrael .... You want to live comfortable in חוץ לארץ and you get upset when you read that a chilonie lovrs Israel and sends his children to defend because it brings to the surface your own not living the land that the רבש״ע gifted to us...<br />The facts are very stubborn and the facts are that the assimilation rate in חוץ לארץ is over 90% according to Bnei Brit. a secular Jew making Aliyah may not be a שומר תורה ומצות but his children will remain Jewish and marry Jews and may in fact become over time Frum<br />The Anti-Zionist propaganda machine wants Jews to remain in the diaspora so that they can continue annexing lands from the goyim in Monroe, Lakewood, monsey and Williamsburg ... <br />The Jews in these areas are sitting on a powder keg that will explode sooner than later ....<br />History has proven that the רבש״ע wants us to yearn and come back home to Israel<br />The רבש״ע doesn't want us in Uman where the earth is soaked in Jewish Blood ...... The רבש״ע didn't give our אבות Lakewood , monsey,Passaic Williamsburg, new square, or Monroe <br />He gave us Israel .... And that's where every single Jew needs to be <br />All those comments defending that savage that calls himself Frankfurter .... even if you quote Gedolim .... It all comes from a very bad place In your hearts <br />And that is an unexplained hatred to the land the רבש״ע gave us as a ירושה <br />Dusiznieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17159854165651441155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633952367455665536.post-56596819030875918012016-09-01T23:23:43.470+03:002016-09-01T23:23:43.470+03:003:57,
So who tells not to conduct yourself on a h...3:57,<br /> So who tells not to conduct yourself on a holier level in EY? Shouldn't that be our goal?<br />Hopefully, you're not lowering the bar by saying.... Eh,.... Let's stay here in golus and with aveirus than make Aliyah... It's too hard to become an ehrlicher yid... Well, my friend... This is NOT the goal...<br /> Make Aliyah and work hard to become more holy, shouldn't that be the goal... Raise the bar, not lower it..<br /> A Final Thought:<br /> The halacha by bentching is that if you leave out some phrases, you're not yotzei.... One of them is "Eretz Tovah V'chemdah"... meaning Eretz Yisroel... In other words, the halcha... the Shulchan Aruch... which is TORAH ALL the WAY, is telling us that without those 3 words, you've failed in bentching even as you dine at Shloymie Pippik's in West Palm under the palm trees... Besides the other references in the Birchat Hamazon to EY...<br /> So in conclusion, my friends:<br /> The next time we lean over your kitchen counter and grab a plastic bentcher'l that we once picked up at Bimchik Hockenstein's wedding to his dear kallah, Cha-Cha... let's pay attention to the Boneh Yerushalim prayer, eretz chemda reference, etc., OR another piece of Torah... the Al Hamichya, which of course, we proudly know by heart which mentions Eretz Yisroel...Let's concentrate on the meaning....<br /> You know..... its Torah....The same Torah that tells you to wear tfillin which you would never think of not obeying...<br /><br />the Derby...<br /><br />These parhsiyot currently all speak of EY and Moshe Rabbeinu's references to it...<br />Please.... Just as some of you will shush the talkers during kriyat Hatorah, will stand up with the atoro'ed talis over your heads, shukkle and pay attention to every Torah word about EY.... Believe it also... OK?? You're listening to the Torah.... the Torah that writes about eretz chlov udvash over and over again...<br /> <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633952367455665536.post-10008533368393636742016-09-01T22:57:27.740+03:002016-09-01T22:57:27.740+03:00B"H

The discourses there will surprise you... and shock you...<br /> The English Eim Habonim should be available at Lammbda Books (718) 972-5449. <br /> You won't get this at your local Judaica... What you'll get are mostly anti-Zionist books....<br />You're shortchanging yourselves by not learning these seforim because as probably like me, you were brought up to criticize Israel, and I'm putting it mildly..<br /> Read current material by Ravs Wein, Melamed, for example, and a host of others...Including ordinary pro-Zionist religious Jews whose articles you'll find on Arutz 7...I don't agree with every detail or idea they write, but the central theme of the greatness of EY vis-à-vis Torah & Yiddishkeit is paramount and common to all of them ....<br /> Consider this:<br /> Are you people willing to throw mitzvos that are dependent on EY under the bus????<br /> Is anybody who wants to separate Torah form EY ready to pooh-pooh these mitzvos??? How can it be that if the Torah is less important than Yiddishkeit, when this same Torah gives you mitzohs in EY ???<br />When this Torah tells us about the bechiyah ledorot because of the Spies evil report??<br />You know what this reminds me of??<br /> I once read about the newly minted maskillim in Ziedliecz Poland, some who were hugs talmidei chachomim, some in their long kapotas and beards, learning some gemorah on Shabbos and smoking at the same time??<br /> Bizarre, huh?

It's in EY, even in a tiny ancient winding uphill st. in Yerushalayim...<br /> How come Moshe Rabbeinu prayed 515 times for a permit to enter the LAND if Yiddishkeit has nothing to do with it????

Biased and pathetic.<br />There are so many things we do that aren't necessarily mitzvohs, but we do them anyway and ,as tzaddikim do, with great simcha.<br /> In my opinion, the greatest Yetzer Hara is against Eretz Yisroel, not money or sex... It's EY..<br />Maariv is not a chova but a reshus, yet we daven it as chova.... Sit at a wedding ready for your main katchke schmaltz, and here come a couple of Yiddlach... Nu, nu, Maariv?? Meyyy-riv??<br /> Nobody says I won't daven tonight...M'Doreiseh,you're not mechu'iv to bentch unless your belly is top full of roasted pullkes,15 bagels and a fat slice of pastry... Yet we bentch, we bentch because miderabbonon we seek to Bless Hashem, to do things because of Ahavas or Yiras Hashem.... Nobody gives these a second thought...<br /> Letz seeee.... Mitzvah?? Or no Mitzvah??? Letzlook into Rambam... Actualy there's a day'uh in Gemarrah for the lenient position... But you don't care.... WHY??? Because hopefully, you want to please Hashem .... But EY????<br /> Nah... Nah... It may not be a mitzvah these days... Poskim here, poskim there...Here poskim, there poskim, everywhere poskim... Ole' McDona...... Rambam meant this, he meant that... Ramban & others, YES mitzvah... Other Poskim: NO Mitzvah... Bahhhh...!!! Nah...!! A Heen... A Hoon....<br /> Nothing else like this comes up anywhere else in the everyday, but davka EY... You know Why??? Simple... It's either an indifference or plain pathological hatred toward EY.... <br /> When you desire something you go get it no matter what, if you don't, then you find Rambams, poskim, SHYT'tehs and the like...<br />This entire debate is disingenuous..!!!<br />Just some examples:<br /><br />Rav Shteinberg wore dozens of tzitzis at a time, the great Reb Mordecha'le Nadvorner sayed in a succah during a heavy rainstorm, though ALL poskim hold that there's NO mitzvah ... Sat in it alone, ate, bentched and came out DRY... Hashem performed a miracle for him because he desired this mitzvah no matter what.... If we love EY and at least start a conversation about it, for sure Hashem will make miracles too.... as HE does anyway there on a millisecond basis 24/7... <br /> Is a mitzvah or not ?????????<br /> Tell you what....Those of you hutzke'ing to hotels in Bahrain, Puma County ,Amazon Jungle ... please check the speaking sked.... If you get lucky, maybe some darshan'll waste your time with this theme:<br /> Is Yishuv EY a Mitzvah or not?????? <br />Read a book by O. Henry instead...

And what Sam Kay cited, I have 2 comments. First of all that halacha isn't necessarily dependent on there being a chiyuv yishuv E.Y. Just as the fact that they can force each other to move from any city in EY to Jerusalem even though that is certainly not a chiyuv. Second of all see Bais Shmuel there (20)<br /><br />Also what he writes that to make this single issue the focal point of Yahadus is blasphemous, I think his point can be well understood. Even according to those who hold it is a mitzva, and we should be mispallel desperately for the ability to be mekayem it, some people take it further to think that this is the very basic fabric of Judaism, to the extent that they prefer people who are less observant in other mitzvos as long as he does this one. The fact is that we had tzadikim who lived in chutz la'aretz, but if a person is not completely observant of The Torah at large, they can't be considered a tzadik at all. To take any specific mitzva and make that the most important, and at the expense of others, is usually because of an agenda that isn't out of worship of Hashem, because then why not the other mitzvos too, and likely contains a degree of apikorsus.Harrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633952367455665536.post-72396037181806483172016-09-01T18:31:46.872+03:002016-09-01T18:31:46.872+03:00Shulchan Aruch, Even HaEzer 75 according to all Po...Shulchan Aruch, Even HaEzer 75 according to all Poskim there is a Mitzva of Yishuv Haaretz Bizmnan Hazeh ...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16142790284866116749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633952367455665536.post-81060525020378942342016-09-01T18:15:06.197+03:002016-09-01T18:15:06.197+03:00Why is he different than reform and conservative t...Why is he different than reform and conservative that say this and that mitzvah is not in effect todaySamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18099505548657604891noreply@blogger.com
